“The team at Kiss This Makeup was great to work with for my destination wedding. As an out-of-state bride, it was so important to find a professional and experienced team that could handle everything from setup to teardown, and they did just that. Jenna Maria, my lead artist, was incredibly knowledgeable and confident, which really helped ease my wedding-day nerves. She provided personalized recommendations after my trial that made a noticeable difference in how great my hair and makeup turned out on the big day. The entire team was friendly, open to feedback, and quick to make any adjustments to ensure everyone in my wedding party was happy with their look.

“The Bridal Glam Group Wedding date - May 8th, 2026 I discovered and hired The Bridal Glam Group literally 10 days before my wedding day... I was experiencing a major lack of communication from my previous makeup/hair artist which resulted in myself being an incredibly anxious bride! Within 24 hours of first messaging Erica (the owner), she met with me in person to discuss my vision, and got a makeup/hair trial scheduled. She even ordered and expedited matching hair extensions so that I could wear my dream style in time for my wedding! Erica did my makeup and SJ styled my hair; both looks lasted all night long and I truly felt like a princess. I received compliments such as, "stunning" and "breathtaking". Rachelle also helped with hair/makeup for my bridesmaids and their appearances held up just as nicely. I am incredibly grateful I found this amazing team of artists; They practice clear and consistent communication and are worth every penny!”

Brook hopes to give you your dream wedding hair!

“We flew in from Texas and did all of our consults via her website and instagram. She was wonderful. She came over at 5:15 a.m. because I wanted to do a sunrise ceremony, and let me tell you, she was so great. Not a complaint, super excited, and so professional. Since I wasn't able to do a trial, it was all morning of and it was so perfect. I wanted a messy but elegant style that would last all day with a couple of braids. It was BEYOND my wildest dreams. 100000/10 would book her for anything and everything.”
